Painted Room

As the remodeling begins
Much joy fills the air,
All the material is gathered
Soon a new room will appear.

Bright lavender paint
Replaces the old dull wall,
Colorful ceiling fan there
Carefully trying to install.

Move in the oak bunk beds
Mini blinds and valances too,
There's no time to rest yet
For there's still plenty to do.

Tear up the old carpet now
Its all tattered and gray,
For new lavender carpet
Carpenters will soon lay.

One final project is left
Hand my porcelin dolls today,
Go to bed and get some rest
For in my new room tomorrow i will play.

Oops! Jodie, I almost forgot to congratulate you on having your very special dreamy poem featured this week. (I must have been distracted by the first ever End Line Word member contest (my first sponsored contest…See my blogs for information.) Anyway, I didn’t want the week to pass without congratulating you. So, Congratulations!!! Smiles, Dane Ann
